In sum, even though I experienced problems with the timer, my favorite feature, I like PCLaw 8 more than most other, more expensive practice management software products. For small law firms and solo practitioners, PCLaw allows employees to integrate both front and back-office functions to meet objectives without having to spend an arm and a leg. | |
PCLaw is a good fit for firms looking for powerful billing and accounting practice management software. It’s also great for generating detailed reports on your business. Although PCLaw has some case management features, it’s probably not a good fit if you’re looking for full accounting and in-depth case management capabilities in one software solution. | |
PCLaw is the best accounting app for lawyers money can buy, but lacks firm and case management. With that said it links with all other top legal apps. | |
PCLaw is slow as molasses and their support will tell you to run a network analyzer that never (in my career of doing this) hits the baseline they say it requires in order for things to run nicely. For the most part the software works, but at least one firm I work with has a database on the larger size (yet they're a boutique firm) and PCLaw support's reaction was ""Wow that's a large database. Yeah this could take a while."" A while ended up being like 14 hours to do some data verification. It's not client-server based, but in order to run reports smoothly, they recommend running those reports from a server-installed copy of PCLaw. This requires that we either grant user login access to the firm's fileserver so that the accountants can run reports, or move the PCLaw network installation to a different server where we can grant the user's access without fear of them nuking the box. Turning on syncing with Outlook (especially calendar syncing) can ruin en entire day as you wait for things to succeed or fail (most likely fail). In my experience the Outlook sync tool that PCLaw uses will happily crash whenever it wants.And that's only my PCLaw rant, I haven't even started on Amicus. | |
We have been using PClaw for 14 years now with 51 time keeps. Recently we started experiencing constant problems with the software. Tons of data corruption...etc..etc.. we were down for 8 days at one time and fought constantly with PClaw support for them to resolve the issue. |
